In conclusion, much has been learned in the past several years regarding the molecular biology of LQTS, and this information has been directly applicable to the clinical care of patients with this syndrome. The knowledge also has been of considerable importance for understanding the molecular basis of arrhythmias in general and is providing insights ...

The still inadequate but increasing awareness of the existence of the idiopathic long QT syndrome (LQTS) has provided ample evidence that, as suggested by many, this disease is far from being rare. This notion, coupled with the unusual pathophysiological characteristics and with the high degree of lethality in untreated patients, explains why the LQTS ...

Figure 1. A two-year-old boy came to medical attention because he lost consciousness four times over a period of five months. Three of the episodes occurred when the child became upset. These episodes had previously been diagnosed as “breath-holding spells.” He was also found to have severe sensorineural hearing loss. The child was taking no medication.

The long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a genetically transmitted cardiac arrhythmia due to ion channel protein abnormalities, which affects the transport of potassium and sodium ions across the cell membrane. Patients with LQTS may present with syncope, seizures or aborted cardiac arrest.

1. LQTS is a group of disorders characterized by abnormal cardiac ion channels resulting in a prolonged QT interval on ECG and leading to arrhythmias, particularly torsades de pointes (TdP), syncope, and sudden death. The characteristic finding on ECG is prolongation of the QT interval. (See Fig. 97.1) 2.

The long QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterized by prolongation of the QT interval, causing torsade de pointes and sudden cardiac death. This syndrome can be divided into idiopathic (congenital) and acquired forms. The idiopathic form is a familial disorder that can be associated with sensorineural deafness (Jervell and Lange--Nielsen syndrome, autosomal ...
